Saurines de la Torre Golf
Information
Saurines de la Torre Golf is a distinctive desert-style golf course in Murcia, Spain, designed by golf legend Jack Nicklaus. This course stands out for its unique desert-inspired design, evoking a mix of Arizona and the natural arid landscape of southern Spain. Here’s what makes Saurines de la Torre Golf special:
The 18-hole, par-72 course stretches across undulating terrain with sandy waste areas, strategically placed bunkers, and open fairways bordered by wild desert landscaping. Its greens are expansive and undulating, demanding precision in putting, while the lack of significant water hazards (except for a large lake between the 9th and 18th holes) allows for a continuous flow in play.
The design focuses on a more challenging short game, with the greens providing both excitement and difficulty for players of all levels. Its layout encourages thoughtful play, using the natural slope of the landscape and the wind to add variety and challenge to each hole.
The clubhouse at Saurines de la Torre offers all standard amenities, including a pro shop, locker rooms, and a terrace with views of the surrounding fairways and landscape. Nearby residential areas blend in with the course, featuring modern apartments and villas that overlook the fairways.
Located near the town of Roldán and within a short drive from Murcia International Airport, Saurines de la Torre Golf provides a relaxing atmosphere with a unique desert golfing experience in a serene Mediterranean setting. The course’s peaceful and open surroundings make it a perfect destination for those seeking an escape in nature while enjoying a quality round of golf.
